    This page may help you out.
    He didn't have a problem with Virtualbox but with a game that was giving the same error message.

    [SOLVED] ERROR: Depends: binutils (

    May also want to reinstall the libc6 package and make sure that you have libc6-dev installed.

    You also did not specify what your system specs are or if you were using the open source version of Virtualbox from the repos or if you downloaded the closed source .deb package from the Virtualbox download page.

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    What version of VBox are you trying to install? Also, is it the open version, or the proprietary one?

    That is a bit dated. The current VBox version is 3.2.12. Here is a link to the Ubuntu 10.10 DEB file for it - you can download directly: http://download.virtualbox.org/virtu...rick_amd64.deb
